Antonio Brown emerged late Wednesday claiming his badly injured ankle, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers¡¯ ¡°cover-up¡± of his status, caused his in-game exit from the sideline at MetLife Stadium during Sunday¡¯s game against the New York Jets.
Brown, spotted earlier this week at a Brooklyn Nets game, issued a statement through his attorney on the same day the Buccaneers included him on the team¡¯s injury report for Week 18.
Though the Buccaneers made it clear after beating the Jets that Brown was ¡°no longer a Buc,¡± no official transaction was made in what could be shaping up as a litigious faceoff.
